Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft neue, als Homologen- und isomerengemisch vorliegende, Alkylsubstituierte Phenylendiamine, ein Verfahren zu ihrer Herstellung, sowie ihre Verwendung als Kettenverlängerungsmittel bei der Herstellung von Polyurethankunststoffen.The present invention relates to new alkyl-substituted phenylenediamines which are present as a homolog and isomer mixture, a process for their preparation and their use as chain extenders in the production of polyurethane plastics.

Aromatische Diamine stellen eine bekannte Verbindungsklasse dar. Die einfachsten Vertreter dieser Verbindungsklasse, d. h. die isomeren Phenylen- und Toluylendiamine sind jedoch mit dem Nachteil behaftet, daß es sich um bei Raumtemperatur kristalline Substanzen handelt, und die daher als Reaktionspartner für organische Polyisocyanate, beispielsweise als Kettenverlängerungsmittel bei der Herstellung von Polyurethankunststoffen kaum Eingang in die Praxis gefunden haben.Aromatic diamines represent a known class of compounds. The simplest representatives of this class of compounds, i. H. However, the isomeric phenylene and toluenediamines have the disadvantage that they are substances which are crystalline at room temperature, and which have therefore found little use in practice as reactants for organic polyisocyanates, for example as chain extenders in the production of polyurethane plastics.

In der US-PS 2934 571 wird die Herstellung von langkettigen Dinitro-alkyl-benzolen beschrieben, die gemäß US-PS 2 986 576 zu den entsprechenden Diaminen weiterverarbeitet werden können. Bei den gemäß US-PS 2 934 571 als Ausgangsmaterial eingesetzten Alkylbenzolen handelt es sich, wie insbesondere den Ausführungsbeispielen zu entnehmen, um weitgehend definierte Verbindungen, die insbesondere eine verzweigte Oligopropylen-Seitenkette aufweisen. Zur Nitrierung dieser Kohlenwasserstoffe wird in der Vorveröffentlichung ein spezielles Nitrierverfahren vorgeschlagen, da klassiche Nitrierverfahren offensichtlich bei der Nitrierung der gemäß Vorveröffentlichung einzusetzenden Kohlenwasserstoffe zu den entsprechenden Dinitro-alkyl-benzolen versagen. Trotz des aufwendigen Verfahrens unter Mitverwendung von Schwefeltrioxidhaltiger Schwefelsäure entstehen beim Verfahren der US-PS 2 934 571 störende Restanteile an Mononitroverbindungen, wie eigene Untersuchungen zur Dinitrierung eines gemäß Beispiel V der Vorveröffentlichung hergestellten Dodecylbenzols belegen. Die Weiterverarbeitung dieser Zwischenstufe zu Diaminen führt zwangsläufig zu Diaminen mit einem unerwünschten Gehalt an Monoaminen, so daß die Diamine als Kettenverlängerer bei der Herstellung von Polyurethankunststoffen' weitgehend unbrauchbar sind. Hierdurch wird auch verständlich, daß die Verfahrensprodukte der genannten Vorveröffentlichungen bislang keinen Eingang in die technische Polyurethanchemie finden konnten.US Pat. No. 2,934,571 describes the production of long-chain dinitro-alkyl-benzenes which can be processed further to give the corresponding diamines in accordance with US Pat. No. 2,986,576. The alkylbenzenes used as starting material according to US Pat. No. 2,934,571, as can be seen in particular from the exemplary embodiments, are largely defined compounds which in particular have a branched oligopropylene side chain. For the nitration of these hydrocarbons, a special nitration process is proposed in the prior publication, since conventional nitration processes obviously fail when nitrating the hydrocarbons to be used according to the prior publication to the corresponding dinitro-alkyl-benzenes. In spite of the complex process involving the use of sulfuric acid containing sulfur trioxide, the process of US Pat. No. 2,934,571 gives rise to disruptive residual fractions of mononitro compounds, as shown by our own investigations into the dinitration of a dodecylbenzene prepared according to Example V of the prior publication. The further processing of this intermediate to diamines inevitably leads to diamines with an undesirable content of monoamines, so that the diamines are largely unusable as chain extenders in the production of polyurethane plastics. This also makes it understandable that the process products of the aforementioned prior publications have so far not been able to find their way into technical polyurethane chemistry.

Es war die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einfache aromatische Diamine, d. h. solche, die nur einen aromatischen Kern und zwei aromatisch gebundene primäre Aminogruppen aufweisen, zur Verfügung zu stellen, welche nach einem einfachen Verfahren zugänglich und bei Raumtemperatur flüssig sind, die bei Raumtemperatur keine Kristallisationstendenz aufweisen, die ohne störende Anteile an Monoaminen sind, und die daher problemlos als Reaktionspartner für organische Polyiosocyanate bei der Herstellung von Polyisocyanat-Additionsprodukten einsetzbar sind. Diese Aufgabe konnte durch die Bereitstellung der nachstehend näher beschriebenen erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungen gelöst werden.It was the object of the present invention to provide simple aromatic diamines, i.e. H. to provide those which have only one aromatic nucleus and two aromatically bound primary amino groups, which are accessible by a simple process and are liquid at room temperature, which have no tendency to crystallize at room temperature, which have no disruptive amounts of monoamines, and therefore can easily be used as reactants for organic polyiosocyanates in the production of polyisocyanate addition products. This object could be achieved by providing the compounds according to the invention described in more detail below.

Die Herstellung derartiger Alkylbenzol-Gemische erfolgt in an sich bekannter Weise durch Alkylierung von Benzol mit den entsprechenden technischen, linearen Olefingemischen, wie beispielsweise den entsprechenden technischen Oligoethylengemischen oder anderen linearen Oligoolefinen oder mit den entsprechenden technischen linearen Alkylchloridgemischen, wie beispielsweise in Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, third edition, Vol. 2, (1978) auf Seiten 50 bis 61 beschrieben.Such alkylbenzene mixtures are prepared in a manner known per se by alkylating benzene with the corresponding technical, linear olefin mixtures, such as, for example, the corresponding technical oligoethylene mixtures or other linear oligo-olefins, or with the corresponding technical linear alkyl chloride mixtures, as for example in Kirk-Othmer, Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, third edition, Vol. 2, (1978) on pages 50 to 61.

Bei der Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen. Verfahrens erfolgt die Überführung der Alkylbenzole in die entsprechenden Dinitroverbindungen durch eine an sich bekannte Nitrierungsreaktion beispielsweise im Temperaturbereich von 10 bis 30 °C unter Verwendung von beispielsweise 2-3 Mol konzentrierter Salpetersäure pro Mol Alkylbenzol, wobei die Salpetersäure in Form eines Gemischs mit konzentrierter Schwefelsäure (Nitriersäure) zur Anwendung gelangt. Bei den hierbei anfallenden Alkylsubstituierten Dinitrobenzolen sind gemäß Kernresonanzmessungen über 95% aller Nitrogruppen in meta-Stellung zueinander angeordnet. Außerdem kann davon ausgegangen werden, daß ca. 10-30 Gew.-% der dinitrierten Alkylbenzole 1-Alkyl-2,6-dinitrobenzole und ca. 70-90 Gew.-% 1-Alkyl-2,4-dinitrobenzole darstellen. Diese Isomerenverteilung ist jedoch keineswegs erfindungswesentlich. So wäre es auch beispielsweise möglich, für die nächste Stufe des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren dinitrierte Alkylbenzole einzusetzen, in denen andere Mengenverhältnisse der genannten Isomeren vorliegen. So könnte : beispielsweise für die nächste Stufe des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens auch 1-Alkyl-2,4-dinitrobenzol in 2,6-freier Form eingesetzt werden, wie es beispielsweise durch zweistufige Nitrierung von Alkylbenzol über die Zwischenstufe des zunächst isolierten 1-Alkyl-4-nitrobenzols erhältlich ist.When performing the invention. In the process, the alkylbenzenes are converted into the corresponding dinitro compounds by a nitration reaction known per se, for example in the temperature range from 10 to 30 ° C. using, for example, 2-3 moles of concentrated nitric acid per mole of alkylbenzene, the nitric acid in the form of a mixture with concentrated sulfuric acid ( Nitrating acid) is used. In the case of the alkyl-substituted dinitrobenzenes obtained in this way, according to nuclear magnetic resonance measurements, over 95% of all nitro groups are arranged in a meta position to one another. In addition, it can be assumed that about 10-30% by weight of the dinitrated alkylbenzenes are 1-alkyl-2,6-dinitrobenzenes and about 70-90% by weight of 1-alkyl-2,4-dinitrobenzenes. However, this isomer distribution is by no means essential to the invention. It would also be possible, for example, to use dinitrated alkylbenzenes for the next stage of the process according to the invention, in which other proportions of the isomers mentioned are present. For example, 1-alkyl-2,4-dinitrobenzene in 2,6-free form could also be used for the next stage of the process according to the invention, as is the case, for example, by two-stage nitration of alkylbenzene via the intermediate stage of the initially isolated 1-alkyl-4 -nitrobenzene is available.

Durch die Verwendung der erfindungswesentlichen Alkylbenzolgemische als Ausgangsmaterial werden die Dinitroalkylbenzolgemische ohne störende Mononitroanteile erhalten, wie der jeweils ermittelte Gehalt an Nitrogruppen, sowie dünnschichtchromatographische Untersuchungen der Nitrierungsprodukte belegen. Die so erhaltenen Dintroalkylbenzolgemische sind daher ausgezeichnet für eine direkte Weiterverarbeitung zu den erfindungsgemäßen Diaminen geeignet, ohne daß aufwendige Renigungsoperationen erforderlich werden, die insbesondere im Fall einer Entfernung der Mononitroverbindungen durch Destillation unter technischen Bedingungen unkalkulierbare Gefahren wegen der leichten Zersetzlichkeit von aromatischen Nitroverbindungen unter thermischer Belastung mit sich bringen würden.By using the alkylbenzene mixtures essential to the invention as the starting material, the dinitroalkylbenzene mixtures are obtained without disruptive mononitro fractions, as evidenced by the content of nitro groups determined in each case, and by thin-layer chromatographic studies of the nitration products. The dintroalkylbenzene mixtures thus obtained are therefore excellently suitable for direct further processing to give the diamines according to the invention, without the need for complex purification operations which, in particular in the case of removal of the mononitro compounds by distillation under technical conditions, involve incalculable dangers because of the easy decomposability of aromatic nitro compounds under thermal stress would bring themselves.

Die nächste Stufe des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens besteht in der an sich bekanten Hydrierung der Nitrogruppen zu den entsprechenden primären Aminogruppen beispielsweise unter Verwendung von Raney-Nickel als Hydrierungskatalysator bei beispielsweise 20-60 °C und einem Wasserstoffdruck von beispielsweise 20 bis 40 bar.The next stage of the process according to the invention consists in the known hydrogenation of the nitro groups to the corresponding primary amino groups, for example using Raney nickel as a hydrogenation catalyst at, for example, 20-60 ° C. and a hydrogen pressure of, for example, 20 to 40 bar.

Die bei dieser Hydrierung anfallenden erfindungsgemäßen Diamine der obengenannten Formel entsprechen selbstverständlich bezüglich der Stellung der Aminogruppen den bezüglich der Stellung der Nitrogruppen gemachten Ausführungen und bezüglich der Natur des Restes R den bei der Beschreibung der zu ihrer Herstellung einzusetzenden Atkytbe.nzoten gemachten Ausführungen.The diamines of the above formula according to the invention obtained in this hydrogenation naturally correspond with regard to the position of the amino groups to the statements made with regard to the position of the nitro groups and with regard to the nature of the radical R to the descriptions in the description of the Atkytbe to be used for their preparation . nzoten made statements.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Diamine stellen bei Raumtemperatur flüssige Substanzen dar, die keinerlei Kristallisationsneigung erkennen lassen, und die keinerlei störende Anteile an monofunktionellen Aminen enthalten. Es handelt sich bei den erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungen aus diesem Grund um wertvolle Kettenverlängerungsmittel bei der Herstellung von Polyurethankunststoffen nach dem Isocyanat-Polyadditionsverfahren.The diamines according to the invention are substances which are liquid at room temperature and which show no tendency to crystallize and which contain no disruptive proportions of monofunctional amines. For this reason, the compounds according to the invention are valuable chain extenders in the production of polyurethane plastics by the isocyanate polyaddition process.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Verwendung der neuen Diamine werden diese im allgemeinen mit NCO-Präpolymeren unter Einhaltung eines NCO/NH2-Äquivalentferhältnisses von 0,7 : bis 1,3 : 1, vorzugsweise 0,9 1 bis 1,1 : 1, in an sich bekannter Weise zur Reaktion gebracht. Bei den hierbei einzusetzenden NCO-Präpolymeren handelt es sich um an sich bekannte Umsetzungsprodukte der in der Polyurethanchemie an sich bekannten Diisocyanate mit unterschüssigen Mengen an Polyhydroxylverbindungen, insbesondere Polyhydroxypolyestern oder Polyhydroxypolyethern eines zwischen 300 und 10000, vorzugsweise 1 000 und 4000 liegenden Molekulargewichts und einer (im Falle der Verwendung von Gemischen von Polyhydroxylverbindungen mittleren) Hydroxylfunktionalität von 2 bis 8, vorzugsweise 2 bis 3. Die neuen erfindungsgemäßen Diamine können jedoch auch vorteilhaft nach einem Einstufen-Verfahren bei der Herstellung von Polyurethanen verwendet werden, indem sie einer Polyhydroxylverbindung oder einem Gemisch von Polyhydroxylverbindungen der beispielhaft genannten Art zugemischt werden, worauf dieses Gemisch mit den bekannten Polyisocyanaten der Polyurethanchemie unter Einhaltung eines Äquivalentverhältnisses zwischen Isocyanatgruppen und gegenüber Isocyanatgruppen reaktionsfähigen Gruppen von ca. 0,8 : 1 bis 1,2 : 1, insbesondere 1 : 1 zum hochmolekularen Polyurethan umgesetzt wird. Dies ist im Falle der neuen erfindungsgemäßen Diamine insbesondere deswegen möglich, weil die ihnen fehlende Kristallisationstendenz auch auf die hierbei gebildeten Polyharnstoffe übertragen wird, so daß bei einem solchen Eintopf-Verfahren nicht mit unerwünschten Ausscheidungen von Polyharnstoffen gerechnet werden muß. Selbstverständlich kann dieses Verfahren beispielsweise unter Mitverwendung der in der Polyurethanchemie an sich bekannten Hilfs- und Zusatzmittel variiert werden, so daß beispielsweise bei Verwendung der an sich bekannten Treibmittel auch geschäumte Polyurethan-Polyharnstoffe zugänglich sind.When the new diamines are used according to the invention, they are generally mixed with NCO prepolymers while maintaining an NCO / NH 2 equivalent ratio of 0.7: to 1.3: 1, preferably 0.9 1 to 1.1: 1 reacted in a known manner. The NCO prepolymers to be used here are reaction products known per se of the diisocyanates known per se in polyurethane chemistry with deficient amounts of polyhydroxyl compounds, in particular polyhydroxy polyesters or polyhydroxy polyethers having a molecular weight between 300 and 10,000, preferably 1,000 and 4,000 and a (in the case of using mixtures of polyhydroxyl compounds medium) hydroxyl functionality of 2 to 8, preferably 2 to 3. However, the new diamines according to the invention can also advantageously be used a one-step process in the production of polyurethanes can be used by admixing them with a polyhydroxyl compound or a mixture of polyhydroxyl compounds of the type mentioned by way of example, whereupon this mixture with the known polyisocyanates of polyurethane chemistry while maintaining an equivalent ratio between isocyanate groups and groups reactive to isocyanate groups of approx 0.8: 1 to 1.2: 1, in particular 1: 1, is converted to the high molecular weight polyurethane. This is possible in the case of the new diamines according to the invention in particular because the lack of tendency towards crystallization is also transferred to the polyureas formed in this way, so that undesirable excretions of polyureas must not be expected in such a one-pot process. Of course, this process can be varied using, for example, the auxiliaries and additives known per se in polyurethane chemistry, so that foamed polyurethane polyureas are also accessible, for example, when using the known blowing agents.

Beispiel 1example 1

In diesem Beispiel wird ein Homologengemisch linearer Alkylbenzole eingesetzt, deren Alkylketten eine Länge von 10 bis 13C-Atomen bei einer mittleren Kettenlänge von etwa 12 C-Atomen aufweisen. Das Homologengemisch siedet gemäß ASTM D 86 bei 1 013 mbar zwischen ca. 283 und 313 °C, wobei ca. 50 volumenprozent bis 296 °C übergehen. Es handelt sich um ein Umsetzungsprodukt von Benzol mit einem Gemisch aus linearen C10-C13-Olefinen.In this example, a homologue mixture of linear alkyl benzenes is used, the alkyl chains of which have a length of 10 to 13 C atoms and an average chain length of about 12 C atoms. The homolog mixture boils according to ASTM D 86 at 1,013 mbar between approx. 283 and 313 ° C, with approx. 50 volume percent passing to 296 ° C. It is a reaction product of benzene with a mixture of linear C 10 -C 13 olefins.

a) Nitrierung des Alkylbenzolgemischs :a) Nitration of the alkylbenzene mixture:

In 1,97 kg Alkylbenzolgemisch wird eine Mischung von 1 136 ml 98 %iger Salpetersäure und 1 584 ml 96 %iger Schwefelsäure unter Kühlen so eingetropft, daß die Innentemperatur bei 10 bis 15 °C liegt. Nach Beendigung des Zutropfens wird 3 Stunden bei 25 bis 30 °C nachgerührt. Die organische Phase wird nachfolgend auf 10 kg Eis geschüttet, mit Natriumbicarbonatlösung neutral gewaschen und nochmals mit Wasser nachgewaschen. Die organische Phase wird abgetrennt und von verbleibenden Wasseranteilen durch Zentrifugieren weitgehend befreit. Das so erhaltene, flüssige Dinitroalkylbenzolgemisch wurde ohne weitere Reinigung der nächsten Reaktionsstufe zugeführt.A mixture of 1,136 ml of 98% nitric acid and 1,584 ml of 96% sulfuric acid is added dropwise to 1.97 kg of alkylbenzene mixture with cooling so that the internal temperature is 10 to 15 ° C. After the dropping has ended, the mixture is stirred at 25 to 30 ° C. for 3 hours. The organic phase is subsequently poured onto 10 kg of ice, washed neutral with sodium bicarbonate solution and washed again with water. The organic phase is separated off and any remaining water is largely removed by centrifugation. The liquid dinitroalkylbenzene mixture thus obtained was fed to the next reaction stage without further purification.

Ausbeute : 2,7 kg ; NO2-Gehalt: 27,5 % (Theorie: 27,4 %). Nach dünnschichtchromatograpischen Untersuchungen waren keine Restanteile an Mononitroverbindungen nachzuweisen (Laufmittel 90 Gew.-Tie. Petrolether/10 Gew.-Tle. Ether).Yield: 2.7 kg; NO 2 content: 27.5% (theory: 27.4%). According to thin-layer chromatographic studies, no residual proportions of mononitro compounds were found (eluent 90 parts by weight, petroleum ether / 10 parts by weight ether).

b) Hydrierung des Dinitroalkylbenzolgemischs :b) hydrogenation of the dinitroalkylbenzene mixture:

In einem Rührautoklaven werden 672 g der Dinitroverbindung gemäß a) in 1 700 ml Ethanol gelöst und mit 70 g Raney-Nickel versetzt. Bei 40 °C und 20 bis 40 bar Wasserstoffdruck wird bis zum Ende der Wasserstoffaufnahme gerührt. Anschließend wird entspannt, vom Katalysator abfiltriert und das Ethanol abdestilliert. Man erhält 550 g Rohamingemisch, welches als solches oder auch nach destillativer Reinigung für die erfindungsgemäße Verwendung geeignet ist. Das Rohamingemisch weist einen Stickstoffgehalt von 10,06 % (Theorie : 10,1 %) auf.672 g of the dinitro compound according to a) are dissolved in 1,700 ml of ethanol in a stirred autoclave, and 70 g of Raney nickel are added. At 40 ° C and 20 to 40 bar hydrogen pressure, the mixture is stirred until the hydrogen uptake has ended. The pressure is then released, the catalyst is filtered off and the ethanol is distilled off. 550 g of crude amine mixture are obtained, which, as such or after purification by distillation, is suitable for the use according to the invention. The raw amine mixture has a nitrogen content of 10.06% (theory: 10.1%).

200 g Rohamingemisch werden unter vermindertem Druck destilliert. Auf diese Weise können 167 g Diamingemisch als bei 185 bis 204 °C/2,1 mbar siedende Fraktion erhalten werden (Ausbeute : 83,5 %).
